[Early morning in a small town. Windows are being thrown open.]

Woman: Obamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
Baker: Obamaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
Bum on bench: Obamaaaaaaaaa...!

[People burst out into the street, marching, happy and joyous, singing]

Obama 'nother country,
Obama 'nother land,
Obama 'nother country,
With oil in the sand!


Doctor (singing)

Our soccer moms are anxious,
Our soccer kids are sad,
Their SUVs are hard to feed,
And that makes Jesus mad!

All (singing)

Obama 'nother country,
Obama 'nother land,
Obama 'nother country,
With oil in the sand!


Businessman (singing)

Poor folks are looking hungry,
Poor folks are looking mean,
Let's get them all in uniform
And send them overseas!

All (singing)

Obama 'nother country,
Obama 'nother land,
Obama 'nother country,
With oil in the sand!


Mayor (spoken, not sung)

No need to piss off Arabs
Or struggle with Iran
When Canada is RIGHT UP THERE...

All (shouted in realization)

WITH OIL IN THE SAND!

Obama 'nother country,
Obama 'nother land,
Obama 'nother country,
With oil in the sand!


[Cheering, missiles fly, planes take off]

Liked this. Written the music yet? Clever the way oh bomb another country was hidden at the start. Thought the doctor's part was the most telling. Any right-wing, religious nutcases in the running this time around? (I know you're Canadian - but it's almost local news.)

I'm not familiar with what Obama's policies are but I get the impression they're not to your taste.  
 
Good piece of political satire (if you understand the politics)

Ha, what a jerk - I wasn't aware when I wrote my first comment that Obama was an actual candidate. Perhaps when they've finished messing about chosing their candidates, I'll show a little interest.
